Horrible Apple and Almond cake

Welcome to the first recipe of my new section; ‘The miscakes I’ve made’. Who doesn’t love a good pun? Who doesn’t love a good apple and ground almond cake? This, unfortunately, is neither a pun nor a good apple and almond cake. Despite the alarming fat and sugar content this cake tastes like you might be eating something healthy.

So, I write of this recipe to warn you from it.

Don’t make it. But instead be wary of similar recipes and steer clear. Here is the original recipe. Avoid it.

On a separate note I went for a walk with the two boys and the two dogs and managed to have a nap in the afternoon so I’m feeling like I’m winning this day.

I also went to Paris last weekend. Those folk make miniature dessert things remarkably well. I only tried three actual, proper dessert ones; a chocolate and coffee opera cake, a funny double chocolate mousse one with a white chocolate flourish and finally a retina-burning, almost electric green and hot pink rhubarb and strawberry mousse. Well played Paris.
